    Areas affected...north-central KS into southeast NE

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

    Valid 111652Z - 111845Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent

    SUMMARY...Isolated thunderstorms may produce large hail into early
    afternoon.

    DISCUSSION...Isolated thunderstorms are developing along a surface
    trough ahead of the synoptic cold front in a low-level warm
    advection regime. Low-level inhibition is still quite strong and
    this activity is likely elevated. However, modified 16z forecast
    soundings indicate large instability above 700 mb (MUCAPE around
    3000 J/kg) with around 35-40 kt effective shear magnitudes.
    Elongated/straight hodographs above 2 km, coupled with midlevel
    lapse rates around 7.5-8 C/km, suggest large hail may accompany any
    persistent updrafts. Given strong MLCINH it is uncertain how
    persistent this convection may be, though the downstream environment
    will continue to destabilize through the afternoon. A severe
    thunderstorm watch may be needed for parts of the MCD area in the
    next couple of hours, though timing is a bit uncertain.
